i got one, the dpad was good but not exactly like the original 6 button genesis dpad, i had a busted controller i swapped the dpad over from, so now my joyzz is perfection
What I wouldn't give for a DIY wireless kit so I could mod my beloved SG ProPad 6 joypads.
Mine seems to not have much wireless range. I sit around 11-12 feet from my Genesis when I play and every so often (at least once per play session) I'll see the red light on the receiver come on indicating that it's not connected to anything. If I give it line-of-sight or move around and press a button it'll reconnect and the light will go out. It's been like that since I got it back in November, and I'm very disappointed. The controller FEELS great, but in that scenario it's not as great. Works fine if I don't mind standing 3 feet from the 55" TV in the living room, but that's not a comfortable way for me to play. I can't even see the whole screen that way. LOL
I've NEVER had that happen on the 8bitdo Bluetooth controllers and retro receivers on my SNES, so I'm disappointed, to say the least. I've got the 8bitdo M30 2.4G on preorder (only $25, which is nice) and if it works out I'll eBay the Joyzz.
I use my Joyzz from about 7 feet from the receiver and it's been amazing. Battery life is long. And while it has a charge I've never had an issue. It works just like a wired controller.
When the battery gets low I have noticed some loss of control. The Joyzz won't just stop working completely. When the charge has gotten too low I'll start to notice a few inputs get missed here and there. Then I know it's time to charge it.
I love my Joyzz! And I am curious to hear how the new 8bitdo 2.4GHz $25 M30 control pads compare.
